Has anyone else noticed that the notification LED works sometimes and then sometimes it doesn't. My Wife's phone no longer indicates her of any text messages anymore. I have tried power cycling the phone and doing a hard reset (holding power down until it reboots) and nothing seems to fix it. I ran the LED test in the system menu and the light works. I also checked all the settings and everything is properly enabled. My phone indicates me of text messages but one of my e-mail accounts doesn't update me anymore. Any ideas?
Can try to follow this video:

Can you tell if this problem started after you installed and removed a custom led notification app? Many have reported such problems with apps like light flow lite.
I would suggest a reset to factory if the problem persists. Before you do so make sure your data is properly backed up.

All of her settings were properly setup under settings. Also, she has no custom apps for LED installed, nor do I. I noticed on the HTC One M7 forum there is a lot of people complaining about this issue after taking the 4.3 update. That seems to be about the time from from when I first noticed the issue.

Mine works normally but I noticed my notification light is a lot uh... dimmer? after I updated to 4.3. Before 4.3 my notification light used to be incredibly bright and annoying when charging and watching YouTube at night especially when fully charged....that green light was ridiculous lol

It says I'm connected bit I'm not seeing any notifications anymore. I'm puzzled why it stopped. Anybody else have this issue?

Muted? Airplane mode?

If muted there will be a bell with a slash on it. Slide down while on the watch face to mute/unmute.
Airplane mode, say "OK Google, Settings" or tap the face, slide up, second from the last, third from the top.
I had to do a reset and it fixed itself. I think the issue was going out of range multiple times with the htc one m8. I had this same issue with my sony smartwatch 2. It would just eventually not connect anymore and would have to repair. With this watch it had a false connect even though I would unpair it thru the settings and set up the watch in the android wear app. It still didn't do anything. A reset of the watch would fix the issue with the resetup of the watch. I think this is an issue. If the device goes out of range multiple times with a connect and disconnect it eventually stops connecting then reports a false connect.

I've woken up to this problem this morning as well. Airplane mode is not on.. It's not Muted. Just doesn't work. Did a reset on the watch.. still nothing. Phone is a Note 3
Edit* Power cycled my phone and now they work again.. weird
Also, make sure under settings->security on the phone that you have notification access enabled for wear.

I can get notifications, but they are silent and only vibrate. Can I adjust this?

The Moto 360 doesn't make noise. On my phone, notifications still act the same with the sound and what not. The watch face for me turns on and vibrates. I have an LG G3
Just had to reset again cause it stopped receiving notifications but showed connected.

When you lose connection with your 360, if you open the Wear app on your phone, does it still say connected? If so, try and reconnect with Android Wear to your 360, does it not reconnect? (This is happening to me)
Try reconnecting on Wear, your 360 may say that you've lost connection (Cloud with a slash icon). Try reconnecting again from the Wear app, if that doesn't work, try repairing your 360, that should work. (4/5 times it works for me)
Resetting does seem to work as well, I did it yesterday and went 16 hours without a disconnect, previous day was 7 in 6 hours. But this morning I walked away from my 360 with my phone and lost connection and it started disconnecting again.
Q: What ROM are you using with your One?
Just got mine today and it's disconnected twice on me already. Although it says its connected I don't get notifications. Hope we can get some insight into this.
This might be a Note 5 issue more than anything but who knows. My moto 360 does has not been getting notifications for quite a while now. As far as I know everything is set up in the settings correctly, but it just doesn't work. There is a connection because I still see my music/podcasts playing and I'm able to pause them. But I do not get notifications for text messages etc.
I got an update on my tmobile Note 5 recently and I randomly started getting notifications, that lasted for only 2 days. I no longer get notifications again.
I've tried factory resetting the watch and it hasn't helped. The only thing I can think of doing next is factory resetting my phone. I just thought I'd get to see if anybody else has this issue or knows of a fix before I wipe everything.
Thanks.

Settings-lock screen and security-other security settings-notification access-android wear..turn it off and on and then try notification.

I was able to get it to work by completely turning off the "app optimization" and then restarting the phone and the watch
Hi. I bought the Note 8 (Verizon) last week, and everything seemed fine, but then 2 days ago the screen simply won't turn on when I have an incoming call. The phone rings, but the screen won't come on. I have to unlock the phone, and swipe down the notification bar just to answer the call. I've googled around but can't find an answer to this issue for this particular phone. Any suggestions/ideas?
Maybe give a factory reset a go.

I was actually forced to do a hard reset this morning. The phone would NOT come on, no matter what I tried, couldn't even go into Safe Mode. Problem still persists. I'm actually thinking of exchanging it since I'm within the 14 day period.

Hard reset....As in power off and on right? Try booting into recovery mode and deleting cache and data.

I've now performed 2 factory resets, disabled AOD (for testing) and kept it on for other tests...same outcome. The screen will not come on when I have an Incoming call.

I've tossed the screen protector after 1 day because it kept making a clicking sound on the top corner. No case on it.

Tried that-no change. It's hard to believe that this phone has pretty much everything going for it...except turning on the screen for an incoming call.

3 Factory Resets later, booting into Safe Mode, not downloading ANYTHING else, same scenario. Verizon is shipping a replacement to my house, I should have it by Tuesday. The Tech at the Verizon Store actually called my phone so I could show him the lack of screen activation. He said he's never seen this before either.
FIGURED IT OUT! Settings--Display&Lights--Turn off double tap to wake-up to solve issue! ...
This was set somehow, I disabled that and now my phone properly lights up for calls and I can actually answer them.

Another way to fix this is to call yourself on another phone while your Note 8 screen is on. When the call comes in, don't answer but slide down the notification bar and you will see your call. Adjust notifications to not block/be silent.

I went into Settings, Display, but nothing about double tap to wake-up. Samsung runs on AMOLED and that function is on other screens like Sony Xperias.
I do notice another thing going into Notifications settings and I see that the Phone app is Muted. I don't know how to get out of it.
The solution is the person who posted above. You call yourself, and swipe to unblock Silence notifications for your phone app. It's weird how it was set that way, but that's the best solution!
How do I unmute phone call notifications?
Thanks! My incomimg calls now appear on my screen!
I tired the unblock silence notifications and that still has not fixed it as well as a hard reset. Anyone else got any suggestions?
Thanks

Fix to dark screen on incoming call
Step 1: call youself
Step 2: swipe down on notification bar to view the call(usually how you would answer while dealing with this issue)
Step 3: swipe the call to the right and click the setting wheel.
Step 4: select "do not hide notifications"
Step 5: test call after doing this with the screen off, its should work.

That worked for me!

Two Verizon Note 8s in this house. Neither one is handling notifications well. We're coming from two Note 4s that never had any issues with notifications.
Issues:
1. I have twitter, facebook, gmail installed and am using the Verizon messenger app. My phone generally makes sounds when I get a notification, but the notification light only blinks every once in a while. I don't use AOD, so I rely on the notification light to tell me when I have notifications. There have been times when my phone has been idle for an hour or two where I don't get notifications until I turn on the screen.
2. Wife's phone. She gets a lot more notifications than I do. She is having problems with notifications not coming in after the phone sits idle for a few hours. Once the phone screen is turned back on, all of the notifications come rushing in and she gets a ton of alert sounds in a row.
I have not been able to figure out what's going on with this. I checked to make sure that do not disturb is turned off. Neither one of us use it.
Is this a software issue, or something that we're not doing correctly? On Note 4, notifications just worked. There wasn't anything special needed.
Thanks

It may be a software issue. this affects the S8/S8+ also. More and more reports on notifications not coming through especially text.
Sent from my Nexus 5X using Tapatalk
So, if it is on the S8/S8+, then it's unlikely that they'll ever do anything useful to fix it?
Notifications are the one thing that I hate about this phone. They're completely unreliable and I have to turn on my phone to check and make sure that I didn't have anything come in. It's the one thing that makes me miss my Note 4.
I have this problem since Nougat on all my devices. For me it was the power saving features, forgot exactly which one, but it basically shut down the apps totally until I woke the phone up.
Just an edit to my post. When I pickup or awake the device all my notifications come through at once , is that what you are talking about ?
If you find a solution let me know.

Yes. In my case, it is not always picking up notifications for GMail. I tried to add GMail to the list of unmonitored apps, and it was not available. I'm not sure what else I can do.

Hello mate, it happens to my Galaxy tab s2 on Android 7 often. As soon as I open it out of standby all telegram messages pop over. Weird thing is , it doesn't always behave that way as I can hear my Telegram and what's app notifications on that sometimes when using same account etc on the Note 8.

Well, it's annoying as hell. My Note 4 never did this. I could always rely on getting my notifications.
Makes me wonder if I should use the regular email app for Gmail, and then dump the GMail app.

Luckily for me the Gmail account isn't my primary email address. Have you whitelisted some apps from power saving to see if it changes the notification behavior?

Probably except as it's a built in Google app.
I guess that leaves you with the option of what you mentioned earlier. Add the Gmail account to the existing email app. Bummer.

It's on. It notifies sometimes, but if the phone has been in standby for a while, it stops. It definitely seems like a doze issue.
Same problems here
Notifications hit or miss. I have disabled all the power saving options, disabled all the restrictions on the individual apps, disabled all the data restrictions on the apps. Everything I could think of. Once the phone has been sitting for about 10 minutes on the desk, it seems to just go to sleep. Nothing comes through until I pick it up and start doing something with it. Then the notifications all seem to come in at once. This seems to hold true for any messaging app, email, etc. This is a horrible problem.

My wife is having the same issue, but on a Sprint Note 8. When she opens her phone in the morning she get's a bunch of notifications pouring in from several different apps. So since y'all are VZW and we're Sprint it has to be specific to the phone and not the network. this has me worried because it's text messages and everything if she hasn't touched the phone in an hour or more.

Same problem here.
Note 8 Germany DBT - no branding.
Since last week notifications wont come through when the device is idling. I have paired it with a Garmin Fenix 5x and set it to pass the important notifications via Smart Notifications to the watch.
This no longer works and I missed some important notifications. I have to change my behaviour to regularly check my phone and this is very annoying!
